I hate when that happens...
I have to laugh though. One of my clients got help setting up a system
with redhat from one of their electical engineer experts who knows all
about unix/linux.
He partitioned the 120GB HD with 85GB of it going to /usr - 25GB to
/home and the root partition "/" was 100% full and they couldn't get x
launched. ;-) runaway logging which fills /var can have some nasty
consequences too.
